“This piece comes out of a desire that I've had for a long time to map out

the damage to my vocal cords. As a kid, I used to scream a lot and throw a

lot of tantrums and I think that might have caused stress to my vocal cords

and that's why I have the voice that I have right now. And although I

really like my voice, I can't actually sing very well. I have a really

limited range. And so I wanted to speak to a vocal coach and do a vocal

lesson to see what my voice could do.”
